EvolutionHe’s up there, my dad, goose-stepping across the tiled bath.There’s a yelp, so I bound the steps by twos.He’s holding a foot, twisted in some yoga pose.“Hey, check it out.”His feet have grown webbing.

Thom Gabrukiewicz is both a communicator and a writer of flash fiction. Most of what he writes is kind of dark, with occasional forays into the light.
He’s a winner of some awards and has covered two Winter Olympics. He’s also written a guidebook about hiking with dogs.
He’s fiercely loyal and has a malevolent side that seems to visit less and less. He’s both a hopeless romantic and a realist.
He's currently working on community wellness issues in Wyoming.
